New Haircut

I have been growing my hair out for ages...it grows REALLY slowly so took me a long time to get it to the length you see below. Anyway, so I was getting sick of the long hair and thought I'd go the chop.

I went through heaps of pictures and my friend suggest I get a long bob. I really liked Rihanna's hair at the Grammy Awards 2007.

I got my hair cut at Shine on Little Bourke St. I asked my hairdresser to cut my hair like hers but longer and for a normal side fringe. So voila!

The photo's don't really show the bob-ness of the cut but trust me it looks good lol. I really like it =) Kind of wish I got it cut a little shorter though. Anyway I thought I'd share it with you guys.

Biore - ULTRA Deep Cleansing Pore Strips Review

Photobucket

You know that typical scene in chick flicks...girl is just lazing around the house, when she gets an unexpected visit from the boy of her dreams. She opens the door forgetting that she still has a pore strip across her nose and is totally embarrassed when he points it out. Well that was what started my curiosity about these strips lol.

I have many many many blackheads/clogged pores (or whatever you want to call them) on my nose. So the idea that a product could just rip it all out in a single go was very appealing. So I decided to give the Biore - Ultra Deep Cleansing Pore Strips a try. My friend raved about them so I had pretty high expectations.

I've used these strips 3 times now. The 1st two times I tried them I was very disappointed. After pulling the strip off and inspecting it, I found that very very minimal dirt was removed. So before writing up a review on them, I decided to try them one more time. Surprisingly, this time was more successful. I'm not sure why...I may have applied it better? There was a fair bit of gunk stuck on the strip.

Overall I think these are just 'ok'. They aren't miracle workers, they don't remove all the dirt and all those big blackheads on your nose, just the smaller ones. But they also definitely aren't just a silly gimmick. I will probably continue to purchase.

Lancome - Declaring Indigo eye makeup

Photobucket

When I saw the pictures for the Lancome - Declaring Indigo range, I fell in love with the eye makeup on the model. I love the combination of colours and how vibrant and bold they were.

So I decided to have a little play around with the makeup I have and see if I could do a similar look. I was really annoyed with my camera because it just refused to pick up the vibrancy of the colours and all the detail i put into these looks. Fortunately i was able to fix this up a little thanks to "auto fix" on PhotoBucket lol

Here are some pictures of my two attempts to copy her look.

New Jewellery

Hey guys!

Sorry for the long wait but I am finally back and hopefully blogging much more often. Well this post is just going to be a short one. From one of my earlier posts you all probably know I work at Diva, which is an Australian fashion jewellery retailer. So here are a couple of new things I've bought from there.

I got this earring pack. I mainly bought it for the big aqua studs...they are GORGEOUS and i LOVE the colour. In the photo they're a bit dull, they are brighter in reality. The roses are cute too.

I also bought this bangle set. ALL these bangles are included in the one set. I'm really into gold and wooden kinda stuff. Thought these would be great to accessorise my summer outfits. We are heading into summer down here YAY haha
